Super Eagles Forward Sends Team To Top Of Serie A With Goal And Assist

Advertisements




Games in the Italian Serie A continued today with as many as six teams with one team standing a chance of going top of the table if they pick up a win.

Going into the games, Napoli were joint leaders of the league with defending champions AC Milan after five rounds of games after they both picked up wins over the weekend.

However they have both been dislodged by Atalanta who were 2-0 winners of Monza with Nigeria international winger Ademola Lookman stealing the show with a goal and an assist.

Lookman laid the first goal on the plate for Rasmus Højlund to put Atalanta ahead before grabbing a goal of his own but it appears the goal will likely be given as an own goal by the goal panel of the league.

He slid in onto a cross at the left post directing it across goal, retreating Monza  defender Marlon couldn’t adjust his body and he deflected the effort into his own net. Lookman claimed the goal but it will clearly be subjected to a review.

However coach Gian Piero Gasperini won’t be bothered about who gets the credit with his team getting the needed three points to go top of the league on 13 points.
